    friendly staff
    cozy room
    comfortable bed
    limited parking
    no breakfast

    had a lovely stay in a charming old building with huge sash windows. the bed was super comfy with nice pillows n big cushions. the room felt cozy and clean, and the staff was friendly, very helpful too. loved the tea making stuff and good view of the town from the room.

    only downside was that parking was tricky with narrow access and had to park right outside, which was not ideal. also, no breakfast available which was a bummer.

    welcoming atmosphere
    delightful food
    noisy environment

    Loved our stay! The atmosphere was welcoming, and the food in the bar was delightful. The room was cozy. just make sure to ask for the hairdryer if you can't find it—might end up having a bad hair day!

    The pub was lively, but I prefer my sleep over late-night shenanigans. A bit of noise control wouldn't hurt, darling!

    Quaint courtyard atmosphere with lovely views.

    Access to the car park was tricky and narrow.

    convenient access

    charming stay near beautiful parks and key landmarks

    We stayed for one night and loved how the room was well thought out with stylish touches. We enjoyed the convenience of being just a few steps from the stunning Abbey House Gardens and Malmesbury Abbey, making our city strolls delightful and scenic. It's worth noting that there could be some improvements in breakfast options, but we found great nearby cafes for a quick bite.

    trendy bar
    beautiful garden
    tight parking

    The trendy bar area impresses with great tapas offerings, making it a lively spot to relax. A beautiful garden provides stunning views that enhance the outdoor seating experience.

    Access to the car park is a bit of a challenge. the entrance is tight and tricky for larger vehicles. The absence of breakfast options is another drawback, leading guests to search for meals elsewhere. Rooms can feel quite compact, which may limit comfort during longer stays.

    cosy room
    friendly staff
    tight entrance
    small room
    limited dining

    The room was cosy, cleverly designed, and clean, making optimal use of its small space. I enjoyed some time at the atmospheric bar, where the friendly staff were a highlight of my stay, always willing to help. While the tight entrance to the car park was a bit daunting, the location made up for it with its central position and easy access to the local dining options. The homemade preserves served at breakfast were a delightful touch.

    limited parking

    Great stay with friends! We really liked the stylish decor and comfy rooms. We spent time exploring a lovely pizza place nearby and enjoyed a fun evening in the bar with live music. The staff were super helpful and made our stay special.

    Our room felt a bit snug and could've used more toiletries. Parking was also limited on one night, which was a bit inconvenient.

    stunning views
    relaxing terrace
    tight parking

    We had a lovely night here and especially enjoyed the cozy bar area and the stunning views from the outdoor seating. Relaxing in the sun terrace was a great way to unwind, and the drinks were just perfect. The parking entrance was a bit tight, but with staff guidance, we managed well. Definitely consider this spot for a restful getaway! 🌞
